Changthok arrived to Pagarau, Yirol East, Lakes State from Pachak village in May 2020 as an IDP due to communal conflicts, flooding from the swamps as a result of heavy rains and lived under poor shelters, inadequate medical services etc in Pagarau till now. His main source of livelihood was fishing but due to the long sickness, he has been on bed under poor shelter which later collapsed. He has been supported by his wife throughout these difficulties.
Changthok was approached by AFOD CCCM team through the Outreach Assistants, he main needs identified are Shelter, NFI (Clothes and Kitchen items) and Food.
